This section summarizes the overall setup. Detail description is provided in the user guide.
Suggested equipment’s needed for test:
It is recommended to learn about the devices and their specifications prior to operating the boards. The device has a high level of flexibility due to parameter configuration available in the OTP. This impacts the functionality of the device. It is key to understand how the parameters are programmed on each device.
Note: The board is populated with a Programming socket - Clamshell 56-pin QFN socket.
To configure the hardware and workstation as illustrated.
Detailed configuration, Flex GUI options are detailed in the User Guide. Refer to UM11162: KITPF8200FRDMPGM programming Board - User Guide
Download and run SW for the KITPF8200FRDMPGM programming board. These evaluation boards use FlexGUI software for PF8100/PF8200 device. Prior to the installation of the FlexGUI software and performing device firmware updates (if needed), download and unzip the NXP_FlexGUI_PF8x_REV_0.7.x.zip file to any desired location.
The FlexGUI software installation requires only extracting the zip file in a desired location.
The FRDM-KL25Z freedom board is used as a communication bridge to interface the FlexGUI with the PMIC and other I2C devices. The firmware is organized in three levels:
Note: The following firmware updates are optional and can be skipped if the firmware is up-to-date.
If a new software or silicon release requires a firmware update on the FRDM-KL25Z freedom board, use the following procedure to upgrade or downgrade the firmware of the freedom board as needed. Note that this procedure is needed only to update the firmware and may be skipped if no change is needed.
